5 to Thrive
When unexpected challenges hit our current students, their safety nets can break. That’s when they need emergency support to meet basic needs like meals, and textbook and laptop loans for classes. Some students need help paying for car repairs, rent or medical bills.
You can provide emergency support to students without busting your budget.
Your $5 monthly gift (about the cost of a grande latte), combined with monthly support from other alumni, will help students overcome hardships and thrive at Whitworth. Every dollar you give goes directly to support students in need.

You lift significant burdens from students’ minds and hearts.
During the 2022-23 academic year, your caring support, combined with gifts from other Whitworthians, helped MORE THAN 144 students.
I have been suffering, and receiving this aid has made me thankful to the point of tears, especially since I do not have family around me in Spokane. Receiving aid in this situation has been a reflection of Whitworth’s mission. – Senior Psychology Major
Thanks to you, students let go of worry and get back to achieving their goals.

We promise:
- Beginning with your first $5 automatic deduction, we will not ask you to make other gifts to Whitworth for five years, except for our annual One Pine Day event.
- We will not raise your $5 monthly gift unless you ask us to.
- We will tell you specifically how your gifts, combined with those of others, are making a real difference for students in need.
